He's no movie actor, but he's smart, articulate, voluble, and good friends with a couple of the top athletes in the world, who also happen to be well-respected -- MJ and Tiger.

He's got one formidable obstacle -- that "I'm no role mode" ad was true to life. Still, I hope he does run.

you forgot his other obstacle:often exercises extremely bad judgment

not a deal killer, as we have seen

I did forget that. Also, he will draw comparisons to Ventura, probably not so many to the Governator.

He said on a late night talk show the other night that he swore to quit gambling for two years and apparently has been true to his word so far. I dunno if that translates into any votes.
